6s 3000 vs 6s 5000 zippy - 12.24.2009, 03:36 AM

I am racing my CRT with 6s 5000 Mah now I decide to lighten my CRT as my race is only 10mins.

My heavy CRT is heavy but stable. Is there any advantage if I change my batt to a lighter one beside lighter?

My 6s 5000mah setup gv me a 200amp per min. So the 3000mah should able to last 15mins.

U guys think it's a good idea to reduce abt 260grams? Vs stability?

You'll run quicker with less weight.

less weight = faster acceleration, faster corner speed, you can brake later.

heavy car is good only on tracks with very low traction

just be sure to get the 40c packs and you should be fine


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.

I run a 3000 mAh 4s 40c pack in my 8ight. It makes 10 min mains with ease.
